Ok, would you be partial to something like this:

Subject: [PATCH] virtio console: Keep a local copy of the control structure

When handling control messages, instead of peeking at the device memory
to obtain bits of the control structure, take a snapshot of it once and
use it instead, to prevent it from changing under us. This avoids races
between port id validation and control event decoding, which can lead
to, for example, a NULL dereference in port removal of a nonexistent
port.

The control structure is small enough (8 bytes) that it can be cached
directly on the stack.
